On the libreplanet-discuss list, we discussed the possibility of adding
a category for programs which can be fully (or at least functionally)
operated by blind users via a libre screen reader (Orca) in the Free
Software Directory.

What do you think about it? Also, can you suggest any programs to get
the category started?

This sounds like an excellent idea, since the ability to modify a program to improve accessibility for blind/ deaf/ other users with special needs is one of the many selling points of software freedom. Would be good to make sure the SFD itself meets strong accessibility guidelines too.

Trisquel+Orca user Have Hunt would be a good person to ask for suggestions:
